Cannot get redirect working
none of those conditionals will work at after_theme_setup. Look at the Action Reference page in Codex for the order actions are executed in a request. Try hooking template_redirect instead.

wp_redirect not working when going to www version of site
Figured it out, though this is the lamest solution ever: I hooked into wp_footer instead of template_redirect. If anyone has a better solution or place to hook in I’d love to hear about it – thanks! EDIT: That wasn’t the fix I thought it was. Turned out I was writing the function poorly, and did … Read more

Passing User Messages to Another Page
A standard approach is to add a query parameter to the location header (redirect), for example: $redirect = add_query_arg( ‘my-form’, ‘success’, $redirect ); wp_redirect( $redirect ); exit; Then on the redirected-to page, you can conditionally display a message: <?php if ( filter_input( INPUT_GET, ‘my-form’ ) === ‘success’ ) : ?> Congrats! <?php endif ?>

How to 301 private posts rather than 404?

Where does wp_redirect need to be placed to make it work?
Once you’re in the template it’s too late, as headers have already been sent. You have to hook earlier in the request to check, like the template redirect hook: add_action( ‘template_redirect’, ‘wpse52455_redirect’ ); function wpse52455_redirect(){ // do your check and call wp_redirect here } Note that this will get called on every request, so you … Read more
